What are Wall Street analysts saying about Tesla stock?

Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Tesla stock:

1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Tesla is encountering supply chain problems which are limiting its ability to raise production, given the fact demand is growing at a fast clip. High research and development (R&D) and selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses are eating into the profitability of the company. Huge investment made in the development of Model X and Model 3, the Gigafactory construction and expansion of sales, services and Supercharger infrastructure, are adding to its expenses. Although the company is working toward developing a supercharging network, the number of charging stations still remains drastically low compared with gasoline stations." (4/2/2019)

2. Needham & Company LLC analysts commented, "Throughout 2018, we believe Tesla rapidly depleted its high-end backlog of Model 3 orders (lead times have come down significantly for those versions throughout 2018, yet standard battery remains at 4-6 months) and as a result, we could see a steep decline in Model 3 orders either in 1Q19/2Q19 as we wait for the standard battery to become available. With Tesla indicating that over 75% of the 63k Model 3 deliveries in 4Q were from new orders rather than from the existing reservation and it was limited" to mid-to-high end variants, we conclude that ~96% of the 420k net reservation list is for individuals who are waiting for the standard battery. While this is a rough calculation, with no line of sight on when the standard battery version will come out, we remain concerned about the future level of demand for Model 3 in 2019." (1/22/2019)
